"Devil Fruit..."
Walking on the way to the base, Vivian held his chin and fell into a little confusion for a moment.
If it is true as Airi said, and the reward given down this time is a devil fruit, then why did that old woman He ask me to come over
He has already shown the qualities of a Devil Fruit user since the moment he joined the navy.
His mind was full of doubts. At this moment, as he walked down the stairs to the door of the office on the third floor, he saw from a distance that the other two navy officers were standing upright at the door, and it seemed that they had been waiting for a long time.
Similarly, Vivian was looking at the two navy men, and the two men also turned their heads and cast their gazes at Vivian.
"Vivian?"
"The one ranked first on the Rising Star List?"
"Hello, my name is Zepa, the man who will marry the empress in the future."
The leading male sailor with silver shoulder-length hair took the initiative to extend his hand to Vivian.
"Zeppa?"
He seemed to remember that this guy was ranked fourth on the Rising Star List, just above Dashigi.
But...I introduced myself as the man who will marry the empress in the future
Just as the rumors said, he is an extremely lustful guy.
"That's a great ambition." Vivian smiled and stretched out her hand to shake his.
The next second, the dark-skinned, naive-looking navy officer next to him introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Burnham. I'm very strong and I love to eat."
"Hello.."
Eating is a hobby that has always been a problem for me.
The three of them then chatted casually for a few more words. Not long after, the office door opened and a navy secretary immediately led the three of them into the office.
At this moment, He and Taotu were already sitting behind their desks, each holding a cup of black tea, looking at the three of them with a smile.
"Sit down."
The secretary pointed to the sofa in the room. The three of them walked over obediently and sat in a row, with Vivian in the middle and Burnham and Zappa on both sides.
"I guess you already know why I called you here, right?"
"Know!"
Before Vivian could speak, Burnham raised his hand and answered, "I heard that the superiors are going to give devil fruits to the outstanding new recruits in our headquarters!"
As he spoke, he looked at He and Taotu with expectant eyes, he couldn't express how excited he was.
Even though he had trained hard in the navy for so many years and had mastered most of the six styles, who could refuse an opportunity to become stronger like this
You know, that is the devil fruit that everyone in the entire ocean is flocking to.
It’s okay if he has an animal department, but what if he can get a nature department... wouldn’t he be soaring
Once your strength increases dramatically, won't it be easy to be promoted to a general or above
That way he can enjoy a higher salary and eat more delicious food..
Zepa's idea was even simpler.
If he is not an admiral or a marshal of the navy, how can his status be comparable to that of the Pirate Empress
Amazing train of thought, right
He had never even considered whether the admiral of the navy could marry the Pirate Empress.
"That's right."
Crane nodded, "I'm going to give you a devil fruit this time."
After that, he nodded to the secret technique, and five devil fruits were immediately placed on the table.
"Pick one at random." He raised his hand and said.
"Five?"
Zappa and Burnham were both stunned.
"The remaining two are prepared for Kuto and Tashigi who have not yet returned to the base." He said directly.
In the devil fruit enjoyment list issued this time, the five devil fruits were originally going to be given to the top five in order of their ranking on the Rising Star List. However, Grant, who was ranked second, and Coby, who was ranked sixth, both solemnly refused the reward, so the fruit was passed on to Cotto, who was ranked seventh.
Just when Zepa and the other two were rubbing their hands, wanting to pick a more powerful fruit to improve their own strength, Vivian suddenly raised his hand, looked at He and asked: "Pick a devil fruit.. Why did you ask me to come?"
"Are you trying to tell us that you are a Devil Fruit user?"
Anticipating that Vivian would be confused, He directly took out a few photos from the drawer and asked his secretary to hand them to Vivian.
Vivian took it and looked at the photo. It showed herself jumping into the sea to rescue refugees.
"When will a Devil Fruit user be able to overcome the erosion of seawater? Or is it that the power of the fruit you ate is special and can ignore the side effects of seawater?"
He held his chin as he spoke, staring at Vivian with an interested expression, as if he wanted to see what explanation Vivian could give.
When Vivian saw this, he quickly thought of the response in his mind.
"Who took this photo?"
"Could it be that among my subordinates there are undercover agents sent by the navy's upper echelons?"
My right leg began to shake unconsciously.
But at this time:
Option 1: Respond with silence. (Completion reward: League of Legends plane - random hero R skill x1)
Option 2: Answer "I ate the copy fruit". The lightning ability is copied from Enelu, and the swimming ability is the same. (Completion reward: random basic attribute +20)
Option 3: Answer "I was born with the ability to release lightning." (Completion reward: random basic attribute +1)
Remaining silent will bring the greatest danger to oneself in subsequent tasks. There is no need to guess, this is beyond doubt.
And the copy result of option 2 is...
This was an explanation he had anticipated before, but then he thought again, what if the higher-ups wanted him to demonstrate his copying ability in person
If he cannot copy the abilities of other people's fruits by then, wouldn't that be an obvious admission that he lied
As for the third option..
He has always been thick-skinned, and his family had already been completely slaughtered by pirates. If he insisted on his crime, the other party would probably be unable to do anything to him, right
So after a few seconds, Vivian spread his hands and chose to admit: "I have indeed never eaten any devil fruit, and the ability I showed before was because our Alfred family is born with the ability to release lightning."
You chose option 3, and received a reward: Strength +1
"Born?"
Hearing this, Crane and Peach Rabbit looked at each other.
Then, with Vivian looking very confused, he asked his secretary to hand over a red devil fruit with a flame pattern, looked at Vivian and said, "Come on, eat this devil fruit and prove it to us."
Vivian: ∑(O_O;)
